Chapter 13: Clues Broken

Hearing this, Mu Anle finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly spoke to Qi Junyi for him: "Look, isn't he going to say it, Your Royal Highness, don't worry."

As soon as the words fell, she received an eye knife from Qi Junyi, Mu Anle sighed in her heart, pretended to zip her mouth, and decided not to say a word.

"Then hurry up, who sent you to the cheats?"

"The Prince...... Your Royal Highness, you let me go first......" Xiao Er's face was flushed, and his eyes were mixed with pain and pleading, "Please, let me go first......"

After a while, Qi Junyi finally agreed to his wish, and finally shook off his hand fiercely, and Xiao Er was able to take a big breath and dare not delay for a moment.

Seeing this, Mu Anle once again walked around to Xiao Er, staring at him tightly with apricot eyes and not relaxing, "His Royal Highness the Prince of the World has let you go now, hurry up and say, who sent you!" ”

"Yes......" Xiao Er wanted to cry without tears, but under pressure from all directions, it didn't take long for him to burst into tears, "It's the people in the palace, they told me that as long as they stole the cheats, they would get me to the palace as an errand." ”

"In the palace?" Mu Anle frowned, turned his head and looked at Qi Junyi cautiously, in her opinion, the only one among these people who had the most to do with the palace was probably the Royal Highness of the prince in front of her.

But when he looked at Qi Junyi, he found that his face was also pale, and he also looked at Xiao Er in disbelief, as if he didn't believe what he said.

However, at this time, neither of them noticed that Lin Xi, who was sitting on the side without saying a word, suddenly changed his face when he heard the word "palace", as if he had met a ghost, and he was frightened.

"How can it be someone from the palace?" Mu Anle didn't understand, "Who is in the palace and you want cheats, you'd better say all of them today, otherwise neither I nor the prince will let you go!" ”

"What are you doing with so much nonsense, if he doesn't say it, just kill him!"

Qi Junyi's cold voice seemed to come from hell, frightening Xiao Er to cry bitterly, Mu Anle really couldn't help but applaud him.

A master, really a master, a person like Qi Junyi who can pry open someone's mouth with just a few words, it is really condescending not to be a modern inquisitor.

Whether Qi Junyi really wanted to kill Xiao Er, or scared him in order to get useful information from him, in short, he helped Mu Anle a lot.

"I say, I'll say it all!"

So just as Mu Anle was staring at Xiao Er intently, intending to get useful news from his mouth, he suddenly saw that his face turned blue in an instant, and his face that was originally crying hideously disappeared all emotions.

It was as if he had suddenly changed into a man, a shell with no soul at all.

Mu Anle had never seen such a scene, and couldn't help but be a little scared, she hurriedly took two steps back, but was blocked by a wall of flesh, and a warm and powerful hand was slowly placed on her shoulder.

"The Prince...... Your Highness. ”

Mu Anle looked back at Qi Junyi, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva, but saw that his gaze was instantly sharp, and then rushed towards Xiao Er.

"Not good!"

He stepped forward so violently that he sealed Xiao Er's acupoint, and even Lin Xi on the side saw that something seemed to be wrong, so he got up from the chair and stood with Mu Anle.

Under the gaze of the three of them, Xiao Er's face suddenly turned pale, and in the next second, dark black blood slowly flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Qi Junyi's brows tightened, and the pulse of his hand on his neck was slightly tentative, and he turned his head to Mu Anle and spoke calmly after a while.

"He's dead."

"Dead?" Mu Anle's eyes widened in disbelief, "How can this be that he was obviously fine just now, how could he say that he would die, is it a mistake!" ”

"A broken pulse is a sign of death." Qi Junyi explained lightly, his eyes were unfathomable, "I guess he had already eaten the highly poisonous poison before he came, but it just happened to be effective at this time." ”

Since the crossing, Mu Anle saw this kind of terrifying scene for the first time, and he couldn't help but be a little flustered. Obviously he was a good person just now, how can he say that death is death?

Could it be that in this world, human life is really as worthless as mustard?

"Shopkeeper, since the other person is dead, we have no clues to continue to investigate, and the next step should be to keep the cheats more secret, so as not to fall into the hands of those who have a heart."

Just when Mu Anle was in a trance, Lin Xi on her side whispered to her, which made her slowly find her thoughts and nodded mechanically.

"I see."

Qi Junyi could see that she was distracted, and was silent for a long time before he whispered to her: "Although the other person is dead, the clues may not be traceable, I will continue to investigate for you, but we can't startle the snake in the future, we just don't know about it."

After thinking about it, there is probably only this way now, although Mu Anle doesn't know what Qi Junyi is thinking, but someone is willing to help her, of course, it is better.

"Okay, then that's it, let's leave here first."

Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, the three of them left the room in turn, and Qi Junyi was the last.

As the door closed and everything fell silent, he spoke softly into the room where there was only one dead man, with an unquestionable command in his tone.

"Go and bury him, as far away as possible, and don't be discovered."

This sentence happened to fall into Mu Anle's ears, she couldn't help but shudder, and when she looked back at Qi Junyi, she saw a pair of inky eyes shining with a slightly cold light.

He was dressed in a gray robe, with silver silk threads outlining a fierce dragon, his black hair was high, and the soft cool moonlight hit him, as if he was plated with a silver halo, and he came from the nine heavens in a trance, and he was a god that everyone admired.

At this moment, Mu Anle's heart was pounding, and she couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was.

I want to get closer, but I just want to escape from him, otherwise I am afraid that the next person to be dragged and buried by him may be himself.

"Shopkeeper, what are you thinking?"

Lin Xi's words pulled Mu Anle's thoughts back, she smiled wryly, her eyebrows and eyes crooked, "It's okay, I'm just thinking about it...... What do we do next to deal with the enemy who is hiding in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity? ”

Lin Xi nodded appreciatively, but there was a deep worry in the depths of his vicissitudes of life.

The word palace has been entangled in his heart for a long time, and he is clearly afraid of something, but he doesn't dare to say anything.

Now I don't know if he has brought hardship to Mu Anle.
